PVRIS – “Fire” | The Song That Still Hits Like a Brick
“Fire” by PVRIS is one of those tracks that doesn’t ask for your attention — it demands it. Released in 2014 as part of their debut album White Noise, this song hasn’t aged a day. It still sounds massive, still hits hard, and still leaves you feeling like you’ve been dragged through something emotional and real.
From the second it kicks in, “Fire” wraps you in this moody, almost haunting atmosphere. It’s dark pop meets gritty alt-rock. There’s no sugarcoating. The energy is raw, the sound is layered and sharp, and it feels like a storm brewing from the inside out. This isn’t one of those catchy, disposable radio tracks. This is a burn-you-from-the-inside type of song.
Lynn Gunn’s voice? That’s the centerpiece. She’s not just singing — she’s bleeding through every word. The way her vocals move from cool and controlled to exploding with intensity is unmatched. She makes you feel like you’re in the middle of a breakdown — or a breakthrough. Either way, you’re right there with her.
The chorus is massive. It doesn’t just get stuck in your head — it lives there rent-free. You hear it once, and it’s over. You’re pressing replay, letting it play loud in your headphones, blasting it alone in your room or on a late-night drive. There’s something about the way it hits — it just connects. It’s honest, emotional, heavy, and real.
But what really sells “Fire” is the feeling behind it. There’s anger, frustration, sadness — all bottled up and let loose in a three-minute storm. It’s not about overanalyzing lyrics or trying to figure out some hidden message. It’s about that release. That moment when a song says everything you’ve been thinking or feeling but didn’t know how to put into words.
And if you haven’t watched the music video yet, you’re missing out. It’s dark, stripped-down, and symbolic. There’s no gimmicks — just shadows, water, fire, and emotion. It fits the track perfectly. Minimal visuals, but max impact. That’s how you do it.
PVRIS didn’t just make a song with “Fire” — they made a moment. And even after all these years, it still holds weight. Still feels fresh. Still slaps.
Whether you’ve been a fan since White Noise dropped or you’re just discovering them now, go run that track back. There’s a reason this song stuck around.
